Entering Text

This section describes how to enter and edit text.

There are four types of text entry:

•Multitap Text (ABC) Input: Where you press each key as many times as needed to display the character you want.

•T9® Text Input: Where intuitive texting predicts the word you are trying to enter.

•Numeric Input: Where you enter numbers.

•Symbol Input: Where you enter symbols, Greek characters, or characters with accents.

T9® Text Input is covered by the United Kingdom Pat. No. 2238414B, Euro. Pat. No. 0 842 463 (96927260.8) and other patents pending.

The maximum number of characters allowed in an item or a field is defined as the number of single-byte characters that can be input. When entering double byte characters such as accents (ë, î, ô, etc.) or triple byte characters such as the Euro symbol (€), the maximum number of characters varies accordingly.

Here are some examples of text entry methods.
